Has anyone been diagnosed with a subchorionic hematoma?

Hi! I had an early scan last night at 6 weeks and was told they could also see a subchorionic haematoma. It's most likely caused by implantation bleeding apparently! And I have not had even a speck of pink or red so far but the sonographer mentioned that I may do over the next few weeks, or that in a lot of cases the blood just reabsorbs into the pregnancy. Nothing we can do until the golden 12 week scan sadly, and even then it may still linger to nearer 20. If you have persistent bleeding I would personally keep presenting to EPU and get any reassurance you can though. Fingers crossed it dies off for you soon

Thanks Rachel, that makes sense tbh, I had implantation bleeding at the time. I've been to the EPU and they were very supportive, did a scan and explain what to expect. I had some period like bleeding and then spotting which they said is normal. apparently smaller ones don't cause a problem, mine is around 16ml which I'm not sure which category it falls into 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hi I had the similar issue , you need to take good rest and don’t lift weights. They prescribed progesterone supplement for me because I had a missed miscarriage before. Just ask your GP to prescribe you some progesterone supplements and also to check your hormones soon.

Lots of people don't even realise they have one - like me without any bleeding I guess. Not sure how they categorise but it is quite common?

I went for an early scan and it showed up. They told me that it is common and happens while implantation as it can cause some bruising. The body either absorbs it or it can cause some bleeding. I had no bleeding or spotting so far.

kind of, not full bed rest just to take it easy. I've been very sporty before getting pregnant so it's hard to go from there to standstill. The doctor said leisurely walks are completely fine and they also help with mental health which is linked to better outcomes.

Did u have ivf??

no, first pregnancy ans natural conception
